Thank you, Madam Chair.
I have just a couple of quick questions. I'm going to go back to the border. I know that in the last round I just made a statement; I didn't ask any questions on that.
In the riding of Essex we have a lot of greenhouses. About 90% of the fresh produce is exported to the United States. When we talk about supply chains, it's tough enough to get temporary foreign workers here into Canada, but it's equally tough to get our produce back to the United States and to Mexico.
Have there been any conversations with the Biden administration and with the other bureaucrats from across the creek, so to speak, with regard to opening up our borders fully so that there's no more discussion about who can go back and forth?
I bring that up—and perhaps it will be a two-pronged approach here—specifically in terms of the supply chain not just with regard to truckers but also with regard to our advanced manufacturing. Windsor-Essex is literally a global leader with regard to auto parts but equally with those auto parts come people, and they have to move back and forth across the border as well. Has that discussion happened with our U.S. counterparts on either front?
That question is for anyone, Madam Chair.
